Official: AC Milan vs. Lecce starting XIs – Rossoneri go all-out attack

AC Milan will face Lecce at 15:00 CEST this afternoon and Stefano Pioli has decided to make four changes to the starting XI. Samuel Chukwueze and Christian Pulisic are both playing from start, with the manager going all-out attack. 

The likes of Malick Thiaw and Ruben Loftus-Cheek are unavailable for the game, while Ismael Bennacer has just recovered from the flu, and this has prompted the changes. It will certainly be an attacking-minded Milan side, so it remains to be seen how they will find the balance.

Christian Pulisic starts in the No.10 role for the first time with Milan, allowing Samuel Chukwueze to keep his spot on the right after the positive form as of late. Theo Hernandez is also back from his suspension, which is a huge boost for the Rossoneri.

Official Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Gabbia, Tomori, Hernandez; Adli, Reijnders; Chukwueze, Pulisic, Leao; Giroud.

Bench: Nava, Sportiello; Bartesaghi, Florenzi, Kjær, Simić, Terracciano; Bennacer, Musah, Zeroli; Jović, Okafor.

Official Lecce XI (4-2-3-1): Falcone; Venuti, Pongračić, Baschirotto, Gallo; Blin, Ramadani; Banda, González, Dorgu; Krstović.

Bench: Brancolini, Samooja; Gendrey, Touba; Berisha, Oudin, Rafia; Almqvist, Piccoli, Pierotti, Sansone.
